Overview
A reduced concentration of serum alpha-galactosidase A level or its activity is diagnostic of Fabry's disease. Other laboratory findings can vary due to organ involvement.
Laboratory Findings
- Blood tests
- Anemia[1]
- Serum creatinine may be raised from chronic renal failure[2]
- Serum urea may be elevated
- BUN may be raised
- Electrolyte disturbance maybe presented due to renal failure[3]
- Urinalysis:
- Hematuria
- Proteinuria[4]
- Mulberry bodies (distal epithelial cell+ globotriaosylceramide accumulation)[5]
- Enzymatic analysis
- Drop activity of Alpha-galactosidase A activity (in male (hemizygote) patients, is not reliable in female and heterozygotes)
- Elevated of Gb3 concentration in plasma or leukocytes[6]
Genetic Testing
- Detection of GLA gene mutation (After recognition of dropped Alpha-galactosidase A activity in male patients, First place after suspected in females).
